the joys and woes of placing a meal on the table
I love bread! Banana bread. Bananas are those fruits or should I say berries that are easily accessible and pretty affordable. You probably have some in your kitchen right now. Ripe bananas are versatile and can be eaten as is, in muffins, breads, pancakes, smoothies or even nice creams. I am not big on eating […]
Do you ever try out recipes printed out on the packs of food products? I decided to give this maize meal cupcakes recipe on the Amaize pack a try.
Have you ever tried baking with maize meal? Well, I have and I’m hear to report that the outcome was amaizing (typo is very much intended). I have been working with Amaize flour for the past few weeks trying to develop recipes that don’t centre on what we normally know maize meal for, ugali or […]

One word: Amazing!!! These cookies are delicious. All lovers of snicker chocolate bars out there you gotta try these cookies and they even have peanut butter.
